A case for lifting the ban on fox hunting. I would like nothing better than to hear the cry of the hounds and the blare of the horn as the hunt gallops down Oxford Street and across parliament square in hot pursuit of environmentalists,Greens, lefties, animal rights activists and other assorted loons. A bonus of course would be to catch a few foxes on the way.

I throw stones at the bastards, as they killed the family rabbit. That said, apart from being cheeky bastards (and noisy at night in the summer) they're pretty harmless. A health hazard? I don't think so.

I once had a fox drink out of the dog's bowl by the front door. Mind you, it legged it when greeted with the raised voice... The Dog wasn't too impressed either and gace it a good nip or three too. Does this mean that I'm guilty of hunting too?TTFN :)

Very strange story this.My hackles were raised when the papers keep saying Bromley when it's clearly Lewisham.If you don't know the area then the Downham estate is the New Addington of the area (or Hull perhaps).These people aren't very bright and wont be able to keep the story up for long if they are lying-think Shannon Matthews!

@ WC Jaded"These people aren't very bright and wont be able to keep the story up for long if they are lying-think Shannon Matthews!"

Shannon Matthews was and remains, an innocent little girl, WC Jaded. The liar was Karen Matthews and lest you also forget specimens even less bright than Shannon Matthews - think of the easily duped West Yorkshire Police and 'there' 24 day search costing taxpayers £3,200,00.

I apologise on behalf of the WYP,i'm sure you Melvin were not fooled and immediately informed them that the family were lying from the start? Or as usual were you an armchair hindsight expert sniping after the event?Let's guess which one?
